'Silent Hill: Downpour' (ALL) Gets 3D Support, Original Korn Track

Staying true to the franchise's original roots, Silent Hill 8 returns with another third person horror experience, and an all new thought provoking storyline. Players will once again find themselves face to face with their deepest sins and fears in the strange world of Silent Hill.

Silent Hill remains true to the franchise’s original roots, and again takes the form of a third-person horror experience. With an all-new thought-provoking storyline, players will once again find themselves face to face with their deepest sins and fears in the strange world of Silent Hill.

The new game begins after a prison transport vehicle careens off the road, leaving lone inmate Murphy Pendleton stranded in Silent Hill. As Pendleton takes in his new surroundings, users will encounter mind-bending puzzles and horrific creatures and otherworld terrors. Armed only with the everyday objects they can find - from wooden chairs to glass bottles - to fend off their enemies, fight or flight responses are left to the player as they unravel a dark, thought-provoking storyline which will appeal to fans of the early, classic Silent Hill series.

Silent Hill enjoys a wealth of new elements to create a deep, psychological horror experience. In addition to the main storyline, players will also be presented with variable side quests that will change depending on the user’s play style, revealing further unknown evils within the town.

What happens after this is up to the player, as Silent Hill: Downpour reveals a new, expansive environment that is similarly claustrophobic and where the player is never truly alone.

Silent Hill: Downpour will be enhanced with 3D functionality, further immersing players into the malevolent and terrifying world of Silent Hill.

Also announced for Silent Hill: Downpour, platinum selling rock band KORN will lend their sound and voice to the game by creating an exclusive song for the game. The song, tentatively titled "Silent Hill" is a perfect complement to the score, created by famed composer, Daniel Licht.More articles about Silent Hill: Downpour
